Alternative positions for the baby at birth before clamping the umbilical cord

A randomized controlled trial on delayed cord clamping and iron status at 3–5 months in term neonates held at the level of maternal pelvis

“…Based on the cord clamping time, this study showed that delayed cord clamping in term infants born after normal, low risk pregnancies, produced favorable effects on iron status at 3-5 months, in terms of significantly higher serum ferritin concentration and statistically significant less proportion of infants with iron deficiency, defined by serum ferritin level <20 g/L [17]. Likewise, DCC significantly produced higher Hb and Hct in infants with delayed compared to early clamping group, at 24 hours old.…”

“…Only mean serum ferritin was significantly higher in delayed compared to early clamping group (p < 0.001) (Table 2). Although cases with anemia, defined as Hb <10.5 g/dL [17], was not significantly different on comparing both early and late clamping groups, yet the proportion of cases having iron deficiency reflected by serum ferritin concentration <20 ug/L [17], was significantly greater in early compared to delayed clamping groups (p < 0.001) (Table 3).…”

“…Placental transfusion is the transfer of placental blood to the infant during the first few minutes after birht [6]. This procedure is associated with the lower rates of mortality in preterm infants and with the prevention of iron deficiency anemia in term neonates [7,8] (Table 2).…”
